Will she fly tomorrow? I'm bringing the new Jug, the big 109 and maybe the Corsair.

Good job with the re-maiden today Bruno! It was great to see Lil' Margaret take to the skies once again, especially with the little guy in the cockpit!

Bruno,
Love the plane, I am doing the "Flying Undertaker' F6D. Can you send me an up close picture of your camera port. If possible hold a rule up to the port so I could get the dimensions of the port?

Thanks,

Bruno: Your plane looks great. Good work! Hope you get to enjoy it a lot longer this time.

Bruno, Very nice rebuild. Plane and pilot looks great.

Ralph White

Awesome job Bruno.....great to see it fly again.
What engine is up front again?


Fabio

Thank you,
She flew this past Sunday and better than before however I almost lost it again! It happened that when I replaced the damaged fuel I reused the cap and tubing since per first observation it was fine. What I didn't see is there was a hole on the plunger line just at the clunk tube's edge.
I ran the engine on the ground for tuning with a full tank also once in the air and soon as the fuel level went bellow the hole in the fuel line the engine starved for fuel and quit.
I did a risky dead stick landing but got it safely on the ground with just a bent strut.
Already fixed the fuel tank and will machine a strut sometime this week, she'll be back flying this weekend if weather permit.

Fabio, I have a 3W70 for power.
Chris, Here is a shot of the camera blister, also if you prefer I can make you one to save you the work!

With a new strut installed she flew great today!

Chef,
I'll take you up on that offer! Private message me with your info and I'll send the money!

Thanks,

Nice pics Bruno! I especially like the one of the takeoff roll with Princess already airborne and pulling up the gear. Had a blast flying with you this weekend. Did any of those shots that Glen took come out? Must have more!!

flyingchef it was a fantastic job!!. I learned a lot studyng all this thread.
Recently I have repainted a small 1/7 Hangar 9 blue nose mustang .
She is electric with powerful system but i'm still waiting to solve some minor issue before the maiden.

Hey Bruno, I know it's been a lot of years but any chance you still have the mold for the radiator scoop? If so, could I talk you into making one up for me?

Mustang Scoop
 

Hey Chad,

I guess everyone is starting to get out of the basement!
I will have to dig the mold out from somewhere in the garage. If interested I can just sell you the mold as I don't plan to use it anytime in the future. I actually looking to post my Mustang for sale soon I finish to install a new DLE61 (the 3W 70 was not happy in this airframe)
You can email me directly to: [email protected]

Cheers,

Bruno
